We have talked about monuments of the Texas Centennial celebration, built to commemorate some of the most important events in Texas history. But not all monuments in Texas are so grand. Many seek to honor famous Texans or the triumphs of the common man. Sometimes we just build monuments to things we like.

David Adickes sculpted the giant statues of Sam Houston (south of Huntsville) and Stephen F. Austin (in Brazoria County), as well as the Beatles and is working on a head sculpture of every U.S. President (including “Mount Rush Hour” in Houston).
